In 2012, our Founder and Executive Director, was asked by Matt Pillar, Editor-in-Chief of Integrated Solution For Retailers, about theft, fraud, and e-crimes in the retail sector, and Christopher McGourty noted:

"We know that to successfully combat these types of crimes, Industry sectors like retail need new tools and skills that are different from those we've used to defeat traditional sources of internal and external shrink." McGourty explains, "These are often complex financial crimes. They, involve fraud, counterfeiting, and complex cybercrimes. They are much more forensics-intensive than your typical theft / fraud cases of the past. As such, they require specific skills, and increased collaboration among private enterprises and law enforcement groups. We hope businesses and individuals will support our worldwide efforts."

Industry experts estimate the cost of theft, fraud, and cybercrime to just the retail sector of the United States is about $50-$100 billion a year and climbing. The financial costs means higher prices for consumers and less taxes for state and local governments. Also many safety and health issues arise to consumers because of how product is being stored after being stolen.

Counterfeit goods have been linked to other crimes such as Terrorism, Money Laundering, and Cybercrime. Counterfeiting is a $460 billion dollar global issue that comes with a huge warning and can result in serious illness and even death.
